I feel like I keep getting so close to remembering my dreams in detail but most of them I still forget. I had one though where my boss lived in my grandmas house and we worked in the house and I was outside hanging up laundry and the wind picked up. I looked up and saw a tornado forming and heading straight toward me and so I ran inside and down the basement stairs and my boss was like "come this way" and we went through all these underground tunnels by moving parts of the wall out of the way and crawling around and the tornado went away but then somehow we ended up in an attic above the house (doesn't exist in real life). Not sure how that happened. |

Today, the technology is there to give early and normally ample warning when a powerful tornado approaches. When a tornado strikes, all of us are at risk. |

Ever since I was 7 years old, I was writing. I remember being in the basement of my house, this dank, horrible basement, putting on plays with not-very-willing participants, and I would promise kids in the neighborhood that I'd play Nintendo 64 with them after we'd rehearse this stupid play that I wrote. |

I ran track in high school very competitively, and then ran it D-1 at Boston University. I ran there on an athletic scholarship and chose BU because they had both a good track program and an arts program. |

It's about getting the kids up and fed, getting one to school, getting the other down for a nap, going to the grocery store, picking one up from school, getting the other one down for another nap, cooking dinner... I live my life at these two extremes. I'm either a full-time stay-at-home mom or a full-time actress. |

The best plan now is to have as many bosses as possible. I call it boss diversity. If you work for a company and you have one boss and that boss doesn't like you or wants to get rid of you, you're in trouble. But if you work for yourself, you have lots of bosses, who are your customers, and if a few of them decide they don't like you, that's okay. |

I ran away from home. I ran away from St. Louis, and then I ran away from the United States of America, because of that terror of discrimination, that horrible beast which paralyzes one's very soul and body. |

Lock your doors at night or drunken frat boys might wander into your house and fall asleep in your bed, not remembering how they got there. They will proceed to ask if anyone named Hoover lives in your house. At least that's what happens to me when I forget to lock mine.

I had a dream that I was in a house in the suburbs and there was a person there that was considered a genius of sorts. He was probably in his 40s and his skill was to be able to recognize and match the resonant frequencies of objects in a way that gave him fine-grained control over their movement from the other side of a building. He was tapping his desk and foot in changing rhythms and lamps and chairs and papers were moving around in the basement. He drew a picture on a piece of paper in the basement but he was still upstairs tapping. Then a car crashed through the front window of the house and hit him, presumably killing him. A girl ran out of the car who claimed to be my sister and told me that she needed my help. She was being followed by someone who thought they were her partner in crime but this guy was crazy. We were supposed to go along with him until we could find a chance to get away. Apparently he knew where she was and was coming for us.

I had a dream I was at my parents house and it was summer. There were a lot of people I knew hanging out in the backyard. Some were my friends and some were my parents friends. I don't know why I was in the house. I found out we had these blue popsicles and I think I ate a few of them and I took one outside. People were barbecuing. I asked where my friends were and my parents said they were next door. I headed that way and my mom looked up and saw the sun and said "why is the sun on fire? it doesn't look normal". I looked up and I didn't see the sun but I saw what looked like the earth. It looked about 5 times bigger than the sun normally does in the sky and there was fire. I couldn't tell where between myself and what I saw the fire was. My vision was better when I looked at it though. I could see the earth in the sky 1000+ times better than my normal eyesight. I could see the mountains and the clouds and the trees and all of it was on fire.

I had a dream that I was in someone's house but it wasn't their normal house, it was this huge weird house that had all these rooms with open walls into stairwells and she lived there with her mom. For some reason, I was in the house but no one else was and there was a deer with big pointy antlers walking around and it was going to attack me and I ran in a room and closed the door and it was charging at the door and it's antlers were poking through. It was really angry.

I had a dream that this dragonfly was flying around my house. It was about the size of my hand and it looked like it was made of tiny little balloons of all different colors, but the main color was green. I picked it up and it wasn't moving very much and I realized that it had another mosquito-like fly attached to it that I think was killing it. I removed the mosquito and the dragonfly balloons inflated to about twice the size and it started flying around the room really fast.

I had a dream that I was in my grandmas house and my siblings kept coming and going and I was running around the house trying to gather things. I don't really know what I was doing. My dad was just sitting in the living room telling me that I needed to do things but I never really knew what he was talking about.

I had a dream where my friend and some other people were in my parents house. It felt like we were drunk but I don't know if it is just a conscious reflection of the actions in normal dream logical inconsistency that makes it seem drug induced. Anyway I had to shower and someone ran into the bathroom before I could and kicked me out. I went upstairs but the stairs were like planks sticking out of the wall in the kitchen. The upstairs of the house was a narrow tower of hot springs with openings to let air from outside come in. I went up and swam around and then exited to the outside from upstairs (but at ground level). Then I was walking around in the snow and a police officer came up to me to ask what I was doing. I decided to go get some food and walked away to a busy street.

I had a mid-apocolyptic dream and I was traveling somewhere and a lot of churches and schools were in the same building because there weren't as many buildings and there were a lot of religious schools and things that weren't destroyed. I went down into the basement with some people and we were trying to get clean water and a lot of mud came out of the faucets and we were boiling the water and bugs were coming out of it and wriggling away. We thought that there was a bomb in one of the rooms so we started evacuating the building. I rented a house which was pretty cheap for some reason but there was a lot of rare artifacts and things in the house. There was a kid and his two parents that owned the house. I never saw the mom but 5 thieves came and shot the dad and then the kid went nuts and grabbed a gun and killed all the thieves. There was also another part of the dream where there was a bunch of moving conveyor belts and some people were getting stuck in the machinery but I don't rem...

Well, it's really cool at first, and it's definitely a skill you can develop. You can get good at controlling your dreams, too (summoning new elements, or trying to render things differently (don't know how appropriate render is for word choice).
Exhibiting control is actually quite exhausting, ironically, and the in between stage (bad way to describe it) when you're on the verge of wakefulness and hanging on to a dream-state by a thread is quite an lonely, dark, barren, color-void space (not that there are very many colors in your dreams to begin with).
Personally, I feel it's much better...

I had a dream that my family was renting this house by this lake and there was a chain I found on the ground that I pulled on and I found that it went into the center of the lake and at the end was a big coin. There were seagulls by the lake and as I was pulling the chain one flew into my pocket and then an identical looking one kept diving at my head. Then I was climbing up these stairs and there was a cat that wanted the seagulls. The cat caught one but then it tried to escape and the cat fell off the stairs. The owner of the cat came and told me that the cat was in school and that the cat was going to be expelled for being irresponsible and falling down the stairs.
